In a bid to give an upper hand to the whole 3D realistic photo experience, Facebook has just made the portrait image mode much more interesting. When the user posts a 3D photo, the social media network separates the subject from its background to give a layered look.

This feature allows its users to get a lifelike experience as s/he scrolls the image in the desired direction. Not a first-of-its-kind definitely but according to Facebook, this works best when the picture in question has a high contrast background and foreground.

This feature has become a reality because of the dual cameras of flagship smartphones.

The user can also tilt his or her mobile phone to adjust the picture. With this, the newsfeed is going to be a lot more intriguing.

This feature is supported by iPhone 7 Plus, iPhone 8 Plus, iPhone X and iPhone XS/XS Max as of now. But soon we can expect more from the tech giant towards more innovation.
